I've just posted a small bit of story for the Christmas season on my non-Revege blog:
http://shadowmuse-blown.blogspot.com
It's called "Encounter". There's not much there, yet, just the setting of the stage so far. Will post more tomorrow night.

Pretty good!! I liked the positivity in it a lot.
There are a few typos... here's one paragraph, I hope you don't mind if I edit it up for you.
[b][u]Original...[/b][/u]
Quote:Inside, a great Christmas tree wth light whites towed nearly two stories high in the cathedral-like lobby. A cozy seating area replete with a roaring fire was to their left, a restaurant to their right and a bar just behind that. Directly ahead was the front desk and the two crossed the nearly empty lobby to check-in with the sole clerk on duty.

Just the first sentence.

There will probably be quite a few type-Os. The story is being written directly from my brain to the blog. I didn't even have time to reread it as it was late and I needed to get to sleep for class the next day.

Thank-you. I wrote some more on my phone after class ended early on Friday, and some more on the plane home. Will hopefully have that posted by Monday night.

It's not as much as I'd like to have written for the next part, but I figured I should post part 3 now, as I'm not sure when I'll get to write more of it.

Fantastic work again, SB! I like the details you go into to really paint a mental image in every scene and how you attend to every detail and nuance. You really bring the reader with you. you could have a real future as a writer, professionally, in fiction. Or science fiction.
It's also surprising at how well you switch from writing from a man's point of view to a woman's. It's almost as if a woman is writing these stories at times,
Please keep up the great work!

Thanks for your kind words about "The Mouse", Bonecracker. Much appreciated! Are you talking about the preview I posted or did you buy the whole story?
Today, the wait is over, and I have posted part 6 of ENCOUNTER.
Hope you enjoy it!

It is a great story! Really well written. One 'have' instead of 'gave' is it for typos I could find. But a brilliant concept too!
